M-1 Sherman = Academy M-51 & Dragon M4A3 (Wet) kitbash
Shalom.
I discovered that the leftover parts from my M-51 Academy & Dragon M4A3 kits can be combined to build an IDF M-1 Sherman.
I'm going to build this concurrent with my M-51 Welded Hull build as I wait for parts or assemblies in the M-51 Welded Hull build to cure or dry.
Since I'm using the exact same kits I guess I can also use the same start and kit photos.
Here they are.
Cheers from Peter

Hi again TB2

It is great seeing things like this. I think maybe it is seeing all the diffrent colored plastic that just does something to me

Shalom Gary.
It will be two fun builds for me.
Do you remember the old FROG three colour kits?

Shalom.
I was going through my Sherman kits and in one of them I found this styrene after-market working VVSS suspension. I forget who made it, AFV Club possibly. I've decided I'll use it on my IDF M-1 Sherman.

I guess I'm all ready to start building now.
Cheers
